To delete messages from Facebook Messenger, open a conversation, press and hold the message you want to delete, and then tap 'Remove'. For deleting multiple messages, you'll need to select each message individually and follow the same process. Remember, this will only remove the messages from your side of the conversation; it won't delete them for other conversation participants.

FAQs & Answers

  1. Can I delete messages for everyone on Facebook Messenger? No, deleting messages only removes them from your view. Other conversation participants will still see the messages unless they delete them on their end.
  2. How do I delete multiple messages in Facebook Messenger at once? You need to select each message individually by pressing and holding, then tap 'Remove' for each. There is currently no option to delete multiple messages simultaneously.
  3. Will deleting messages free up space on my device? Deleting messages from Facebook Messenger can help clear up space on your app by removing chat content locally, but overall device space impact is usually minimal.
